Hello
Hope someone can help me. I’m a 38 years old and I think I’m going through premenopausal. My dr. Thinks I’m too young but I have all the symptoms that I read. I have also been having chest tightness to the point I feel like I’m lacking oxygen. I have had my heart tested and it’s not my heart. I do suffer with anxiety but it is controlled by meds. Does anyone else lone else get this ? I have notice the last menstral periods I have had this tightness. It’s been 5 years now and now I’m noticing it to come on with my period.
Please help
Thank you
Might be worth getting more detailed hormone tests done. Anxiety also can cause all sorts of symptoms. I hope you find a solution.
Hi I'm 39 nah have been suffering for 4 years. chest pain and anxiety being the worst symptoms. I get really short of breath and tight chest a few days b4 my period. same as you had heart test done and all fine. ive had bloods done and Dr just keeps telling me it's anxiety. I've had loads of perimenopause symptoms butvdoctor thinks I'm too young. I'm constantly exhausted and worry about everything. xx
I have and is very frightening I also have ansiety and it gets confused I do excersice and when it happens I try to cough a couple of times and I’m good. I also listen to soft tranquil music and sounds. I’m here and I read this forum almost everyday to calm myself down. Hugs
Like what??? I did blood work for hormone and apparently I’m not premenopausal
My anxiety has been good for a long time now. But I still get the chest tightness and feel like I’m not getting enough oxygen. I don’t understand what it is
So you feel like your gasping for air and your chest tight ?
I feel like fluters and very hard palpitations and yes a little like that I just cough . But also panick attract can cause that too. My chest get a little tigh I just get desperate and start coughing
I do not have chest pain, but the palpitations are just as bad. I hope you get better Maryann.
It might be different but I had a spell of very bad palpitations and fluttering with stomach problems and crippling anxiety and the doctor said it was all anxiety. I was not technically perimenopausal but in my case symptoms started in earnest 3 yrs before the doctor said I was perimenopausal. So i think issues happen well b4 a hormone test confirms changes
you get chest tightness like your not getting enough oxygen?? have you had test to rule out other stuff?
I also suffer anxiety bad and find it hard to breath. I have night sweat but less than before and hot flushes, did have weak bladder, less appetite, general slowing down. I went to the docs. They sent me for a blood test to make sure I'm not anaemic and thyroid. Had concerns for a while due to tight bloated tummy every day. Hope it nothing more serious
